Thanks Wendy.  I'm open to persuasion, but a few thoughts:

*The one doesn't inevitably have to lead to the other, and in this case the motion states, "In addition to covering the required elements of an Issue Report, ICANN Staff is also explicitly requested to provide its recommendation(s) on how this issue can be further addressed outside of a PDP if recommendations in relation to this issue do not require consensus policies to implement."

Until the issue's been mapped out and options set it's not always evident that the result of any PD that might ensue would be malicious from a public interest standpoint.

*There's been a longish trail of steps leading to this that I don't recall we expressed strong oppo to, and Mikey and a lot of others are fairly invested in it.

*We'll have just said no to Zahid's.  

So my question is, do we have any specific reason to suspect that an IR would put us on a train to somewhere unpleasant, based on the RAPWG Final Report and related?
